Answer:

Dr Bad debt expense $9,100
Cr Accounts receivable $9,100

Dr Accounts receivable $9,100
Cr Bad debts expense $9,100
Dr Cash $9,100
Cr Accounts receivable $9,100
Explanation:
On March 11, Dexter made an entry to write-off bad debts in the amount of $9,100. Dexter Co., charged it directly to Accounts receivable because the company uses direct write-off method. During the collection we have 2 steps to consider; First, On March 29 during the unexpected collection, Dexter shoud set up the reversal of the write-off entry which they had made last March 11. So we debit Accounts receivable and credit bad debts in the amount of $9,100. Second, is to record the collection, debit cash and credit Accounts receivable in the amount of $9,100.
